September 2007 Yaoi News

Boys on Boys on Film says a sad goodbye to U.S. DVD licensor and distributor Geneon, formerly Pioneer. According to a press release posted yesterday, Geneon is ceasing DVD sales and distribution effective as of this Friday. Titles scheduled to be released after October 2007 are presumed canceled, but no further information is known at this time. We have sadly removed future volumes of Kyo Kara Maoh! from our release calendar.

We will keep you posted as more news about the fate of Geneon's anime catalog comes to light.

Not long after the appearance of Yakuza in Love by Shiuko Kano appeared on Amazon.com, we also found this unannounced title listed as being published by Deux Press:

• Tough Love Baby by Shiuko Kano - 1 volume - 2/25/2008
  (orginally published as Bucchou Baby by Kano-sensei's pen name, Shiuko Uida)

Neither Tough Love Baby nor Yakuza in Love have been confirmed to us by Deux yet, but we are working to get more information.
